Chapter 239 Everyone is beautiful standing under the cherry tree
Hearing Si Chen's question, Lin Ting touched his nose innocently.
She couldn't just say that her nose hit someone's chest. That would be so embarrassing and impolite.
The hazy night just concealed each other's unnatural expressions.
Lin Ting saw that Si Chen had already reached for his cell phone, ready to turn on the flashlight.
Just before Si Chen turned on the flashlight, Lin Ting raised his hand to stop him. "No, I'm not hurt. My toe just bumped against a rock. It doesn't hurt anymore. It must have been an accident."
Lin Tingxiao told a lie.
But it’s not a lie. I did bump my nose accidentally, and now it doesn’t hurt anymore.
"Let's keep going." Lin Ting said in a low voice.
This kind of deep alley, coupled with the thick darkness, always gives people a feeling of horror, as if the whole person will be swallowed up by this pitch-black alley at any time.
"Listen," Si Chen's voice came from behind.
"What's wrong, senior?" Lin Ting did not stop, and even quickened his pace.
She didn't like this kind of alley. She always felt like there was an invisible hand approaching from behind, or a figure would emerge from some corner.
Unless there is enough light to give you a sense of security.
"Lu Liang's verdict has come out. He was sentenced to ten years in prison for intentional injury." Si Chen's voice was as beautiful as a cello.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Ting's back in panic. Because the light was dim and her back was facing him, he couldn't see Lin Ting's expression.
Lin Ting stopped at the entrance of the alley. Above her head was a solar lamp installed by a resident. Although it was not very bright, it was enough to illuminate the small area where she was standing.
The reason why the case was not decided until now is because Lu Liang filed two lawsuits, which delayed the time.
At this time, Si Chen just caught up and stood one step away from Lin Ting. Lin Ting's eyes were calm and he really didn't know what the little girl was thinking.
He spoke tentatively, "Listen, if you are not satisfied with this result, you can file a lawsuit."
Lin Ting sneered, then shook his head. "No need for that. This is the maximum sentence the lawyer my parents sent over has secured."
"I don't want to drag it out any longer. I want the sentencing to start sooner so I can say goodbye to the past and my blind self."
"Listen, there's no need to deny yourself for a scumbag. The fault isn't yours, it's Lu Liang's fault for having bad intentions."
"Listen, everyone standing under the cherry tree is beautiful. It's not him who is beautiful, but you who are beautiful."
“There’s no need to deny other beginnings just for the sake of a trial-and-error result.”
"Thank you for your advice, Senior. I'm very open-minded now. I just want to run my pet hospital well. I'll be very happy if I can save more animals and do you a little favor at the same time. As for other things, I won't consider them for now."
"I'm definitely better. The scumbag's betrayal and hurt are their problems."
"Senior, do you know what? I'm actually glad that scumbag attacked me. Otherwise, once he knew I was a rich girl and my parents' status in the scientific research and political circles, I don't know how he would suck my family's blood."
"I'm just swatting a mosquito that was about to suck my blood. It's better to cut the loss now than suffer more later."
Hearing this, Si Chen's fingers hanging by his side slowly tightened, then slowly loosened. The unnatural expression on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a warm smile.
"Didn't Lu Liang know about your situation before?"
Lin Ting shook his head. "Of course I don't know. If I knew, I probably wouldn't have cheated on my roommate and even tried to kill me with him."
"Lü Liang doesn't just want money, he also wants power and to climb the ladder. He's not content to be just a teacher at Jiangcheng University; he wants to be a professor, or even a higher-level leader at the school. He's not very capable, so he just likes to delve into those messy loopholes. If he knew I was from the Lin family, he would cling to me like a blood-sucking leech, unable to get rid of it."
"No matter what, the Lin family has money, and my grandfather's family also has power."
"Senior, you know that our generation was taught by our parents not to show off our rights at school, especially me and my older brother. Since we were young, my parents have always controlled my grandfather and didn't give us too much pocket money, for fear that we would be spoiled. After we started school, we were treated equally and had to live in the same dormitory as other students."
"Except for the teachers at school who know my identity, everyone else thinks I'm just an ordinary student."
"Okay, let's not talk about those messy people anymore. I see that small restaurant up ahead is still open. Let's go over and grab some food. Since we're asking the little animals for help, we'll definitely have to exchange things for them."
Si Chen tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again and followed Lin Ting into a small restaurant not far away.
It is now the peak dining time, and the small restaurant is very lively. The whole room is filled with people. The boss is cooking in the kitchen, and the boss's wife is helping to serve the dishes, sweating profusely.
Unlike many pre-prepared or semi-finished dishes nowadays, this small restaurant is located outside the community. The customers who come to eat there are all locals. They don’t dare to damage the reputation of the restaurant, so all the dishes are freshly cooked. Even though the air conditioner and range hood are on, you can still smell the savory smell of cooking when you first come in.
The restaurant is small, with only ten tables inside the room and five tables outside along the red stone brick road.
The proprietress put down the drinks that others had ordered and came to Lin Ting and Si Chen with the order book. "I'm sorry, my friends. Our restaurant is small and we don't have that many tables. We're full now. Would you like to eat somewhere else? Or you can wait a little longer. It won't take more than half an hour before you'll be seated."
"Can you pack it up?" Lin Ting asked directly.
"able."
"Then I'll order a few dishes and you can help me fry them and take them away."
After hearing this, Lin looked at Si Chen and said, "Tian Tian and Dachuan have been busy all afternoon and haven't eaten anything. They happen to be nearby, so why don't we order more so everyone can have some while we're gone and eat instant noodles."
I have spent a few days in the police station before, and I know that sometimes these people are so busy that they don’t have time to eat, so they just go to the police station to make a bucket of instant noodles.
"Little girl, take a look at the menu. This is the ordering book. Just write down your choice. I'll come get it later."
“By the way, I forgot to tell you that all the dishes in our restaurant are freshly cooked. You may have to wait a while for them to be ready. But we also have semi-finished products, like these stewed chicken shanks and bones, which we have braised in advance in the morning. We can’t make them now, so we just heat them up slightly before serving. If we put vegetables in, it will be a little slower.” The proprietress gave all the necessary instructions to ensure that the other party would not be anxious if the meal could not be served for a while.
